ABSTRACT:
Robotic tooling is connected to a robot arm with a device including a set of support members connected together to provide for relative axial movement and rotary movement of the tooling in addition to relative lateral movement in two perpendicular directions from a home or normal position. The members are biased to a precise normal position by pressure biased telescopic plungers confined within mating and opposing recesses, and a set of linear transducers sense movement along each of the three axes and also rotary movement to provide a feedback for the robot control.
